June Jordan
Freedom is a wonderful concept. It is universally celebrated. People struggle, fight and die for it. But what is it exactly? In his 1941 address to Congress, Franklin D.

The Ideology of the Entertainment Media
Michael Parenti
Some Hollywood movies are platforms for jingoistic militarism laced with racism. Take John Wayne in a Western, e.g., saying, “There’s humans and then there’s Comanches.” In a WWII movie, a GI says of the Japanese, “They’re not people. They live in the trees like apes.” Michael Parenti asks, “How can we speak of Hollywood films […]
Naming Names: The Hollywood Blacklist
Victor Navasky
The anti-Communist hysteria rampant in the U.S. in the 1940s and 1950s is often called the McCarthy period.
